When did people start giving wedding toasts? Any idea? It wasn't until recently. That surprises many people. In spite of the recency of the tradition, the tradition seems to have taken hold. And now many people within the wedding party are expected to give toasts. Toasts can be solemn or funny. And they're a great chance to wish the couple well.
Let me level with you. It can be tough to give a toast. Some people just wing it, and give a toast off the top of their heads. But most people are far too conscientious to take such a flippant attitude toward this responsibility. Most want to do a good job. Well, I don't have any good long toasts for you in this article, but I do have some funny lines you could work in.
If you want to give a 4 minute toast, you'll want to find some resources to help you. But here are some thoughts to get you thinking in the matrimonial direction.
1. He who hesitates is lost. But in marriage, he who hesitates saves himself.
2. Getting married for sex is like buying a meal for the free mint.
3. I was married by a judge. I should have asked for a jury -- Groucho Marx
4. "Marriage is a matter of give and take, but so far I haven't been able to find anybody who'll take what I have to give." -Cass Daley
5. A husband's last words should always be: "OK, buy it."
6. Marriage is like a phone call when you've been sleeping. First there's the ring. And then you wake up. -Evelyn Hendrickson
7. A happy man is one who can make more money than his wife spends. A happy woman is one who can find such a man.
Now, we know these probably aren't helping that much with YOUR toast. But maybe they put a smile on your face, and now you can get to work on your toast. Good luck!
